"For several years my huiband was a missionary in the Southwest, and we were living on the edge of the desert at an elevation of nearly five thousand feet. Every one in that high and dry atmosphere has more or less trouble with dandruff and my daughter's scalp became so encrusted with it that I was alarmed for fear she would lose all her hair, which was very heavy. After spending between five and six dollars for various remedies, in desperation I bought a cake of Cuticura Soap and & box of Cuticura Ointment. After rub bing the Cuticura Ointment thoroughly into the roots of the hair, I gently combed the crust of dandruff free from the scalp, and then gave her head a thorough shampoo with the Cuticura Soap. This left the scalp beautifully clean and free from dandruff, and after the hair was dry, I again rubbed the Cuticura Ointment, this time sparingly, into the roots, and I am happy to say that the Cuticura Remedies were a complete success. My troubles with dandruff were over, although for a Iocs time afterward I used the Cuticura Ointment as at first, after shampooing, which kept the scalp and roots of the hair moist. I have used successfully the Cuticura Remedies for so-called 'milk-crust' on baby's head, and have never found anything to equal tfiem. You are at liberty to publish this letter, for I do sincerely believe that the Cuti cura Remedies arc a blessing to man kind. Mrs. J. A. Darling, 310 Fifth St., Carthage, Ohio, Jan. 20, 1008." Cuticura Ointment is one of the most successful curatives for torturing, dis figuring humors of the skin and scalp, including loss of hair, ever compounded, in proof of which a single anointing with it, preceded by a hot bath with Cuticura Soap, and followed, when necessary, bv a mild dose of Cuticura Resolvent (liauid or pills) is often sufficient to afford immediate relief of itching, burning and scaly humors, eczemas, irritations and inflammations permit rest and sleep, and point to a speedy cure when all else fails.

RiEY, General Agent, Orangeburg, S. C. ? The-9 Scrap Mmk Good Hands Properly Recognized. Mrs. Pike was praising her husband and his good qualities to her sister and concluded her eulogy with this statement: "And my husband has al ways been good to his employees and always encourages those who work for him." "You mean he is always ready to give praise where praise Is due," sakl the sister. "Yes, Indeed." answered Mrs. Pike. "When one of his men does good work he I? quick to say so. Night after night, after he has been late at the office, I hear him murmuring In his sleep. 'That's good; that's good!' And he always reluctantly confesses that he was dreaming about the good work the men are doing at the office. Oh, I'm so glad!" The Aim of Life. We live In deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives Who thinks most, fools the noblest, acts tho best. And he whose heart beats quickest lives the longest? Lives in one hour more than in years do some Whose fat blood sleeps as It slips along their veins. Life is but a means unto an end, that end Beginning, mean and end to all things God. The dead have all the glory of the world. ?Philip James Bailey. Almost a Creation. During Governor Rollins' administra tion a representative of the legislature of New Hampshire from one of the ru ral districts In the northern section of the state was presented to the gov ernor for the first time. Being some what unfamiliar with "statehouse eti quette," he addressed his excellency as "most high." The governor Informed the gentle man from the rural district that there was but one "most high, he who had made everything from nothing." "Well, governor," replied the country legislator, "I'll give you credit for making a justice of the peace out of a man up in my town that is about as near to nothing as ever walked on two legs." Thought It Was a Bird. \ There was a bailie in Glasgow some years ago whose knowledge of natural history was limited. One day when on the bench the following case came be fore him: A man who had a squirrel, on going to the country for a short time, left the squirrel in charge of a neighbor. The neighbor when attending to the animal accidentally left the door of Its cage open, and without being scon it made its escape. On ids return the owner of the squirrel was very angry at the man for bis carelessness and brought an action against him, demanding com pensation for the loss of his pet. The bailie heard both parties and then gave the following as his decision: "Nae doot ye did wrang to opeu the cage door, but," turning to the pur suer, "ye was wrang, tae, for ye should hae clipplt the beast's wings." "It's a quadruped, yer honor!" said the man. "Quadruped here or quadruped there, if ye had clippit its wings it couldna hae flown awa'. I dismiss tho case." Only a Sample. A crotchety old farmer of Massachu setts had trouble with a neighbor and as a result sought his counsel. "I want yeow ter write him a letter an' tell him this here foolishness hez got ter stop." he declared firmly. "I know what I went ter say, but I ain't got the larnln' ter put It just right." "What do you want to say?" the lawyer asked. "Waal, begin by tellln' him thet he's the durndest, lyln'est, thievin'est, low downest skunk on airth and then work up."?Lippincott's. Yes, She Knew. Robson liked jokes and thought he knew one when he met It. One day a friend said to him: "Robson, do you know why you are like a donkey?" "Like a donkey!" echoed Robson, opening his eyes wide. "I don't." "Because your better half is stub bornness itself." The jest pleased Robson immensely, for he at once saw the possibility of a glorious little dig at his wife. So when he g*t home he said: '?.Mrs. Robson, do you know why I am like a donkey?" He waited a moment, expecting his wife to give It up. But she didn't. She looked at him somewhat pityingly as she answered "I suppose it's because you were born so." Toil. If you want knowledge, you must toll for il; if food, yen must toil for it. and if pleasure, you must toil for it. Toil is the law. Pleasure conies through toil and not by self indulgence and indolence. When a man gets to love work bis life is a happy one. Couldn't Foci Him. A pompous ami loud mouthed mem ber of a rertain legislature was mak ing a speech ou some momentous ques tion and in concluding said: "In tho words of Daniel Weitster, who wrote the dictionary, 'give tne liberty or give mo death.' " one of bis colleagues pulled at bis coat and whispered: "Daniel Webster did not write the dictionary, it was .Noah." "Noah nothing." replied the speaker. "Noah built the ark."

Ho Had Blundered Anyhow Before He Sent the Letter. The lovesick young man ran up the steps and was met at the door by a very pretty young lady. "Constance," he said eagerly as he held out his hand to her, "did you get my letter this morning?" "No," carelessly returned she. "1 presume Vivian took it" "Vivian!" The swain blushed pro fusely. "Why, that letter was ad dressed tc?ou!" "Yes. Vivian and I are twins and look alike, you know. Indeed, our most intimate friends often mistake each for the other!" "But your names are nothing alike," stammered the bewildered young man. "I wrote 'Constance Withers' very plainly on the outside of that letter. I don't see how any such mistake could be made." "Oh, It wasn't a mistake! Anyhow. It doesn't make much difference." "What? Constance, that letter con tained more than you think! In It I made apology for my too ardent ac tions before you last night, and, fur thermore. I sent it to ask you if?If you would be my"? "But it belonged to Vivian!" "Are you crazy? I beg pardon! I meant?goodness gracious! How has Vivian anything to do with the let ter?" "Because when you made love last night you mistook Vivian for me!" Better Late Than Early. There is a certain young New York broker whose recent sad experience In endeavoring to pull the wool over his wife's eyes has led him to declare "Never again." Now, It Is the broker's custom to take a 5:30 suburban train, thus en abling him to reach his home In West chester In ample time for the early dinner that both he and his wife like.

The next step was, of course, to telegraph the wife, which he did In these terms: Unavoidably detained. Missed tho 6:30. Home later. When hubby finally did show up, he observed an expression on the counte nance of his spouse that argued the failure of his little fib. "What's the trouble, dear?" he ask ed, with au affected nonchalance. Without a word the wife handed him the telegraph slip, indicating with her forefinger the words: "Received at 4:43."?Lipplncott's.

Selfishness is the seed and sin Is the harvest. Think only of yourself and others will forget you. The empty head is easily wrinkled into furrows that look like deep thought. A small life often takes all its time waiting for a chance at a big job. Gambling has taught many a young man how he couldn't make money. Iti is better to be regarded as a prude than to rot as a mental gar bage can. The man who makes himself great is greater than the man who is born great. Cynicism is a pain clue to attempt ing to eat all life's fruits too early in the season. The prayer that rises in the heart always works a way to the feet and the fingers. People who think they were born to regulate the world are always afraid they will die from being overrighteous. Honor Both Armies.
